Whlms of Current Fashion.

Whims OF Current Fasnion'
| No money is better spent than what is
| laid out for domestic satisfaction. A man
| is pleased that his wife is dressed as well
as other people, and wife is pleased tnat
| she is dressed. JoHNsoN
Pulled sleeves are much worn,
both in Paris and in London.
German lace is much used, being
durable and inexpensive.
Tussores with floral stripes in bold
designs are new departures.
Heliotrope and castor, yellow and
biscuit are to be fashionable colors.
A novelty is the sushing silk,
| thin Oriental fabric printed in at
tractive patterns.
Crepe lisse handkerchiefs are
among the useless novelties. They
come in all the delicate fashionable
shades.
There are many new ideas in par
asols. Crepe lisse is favorite ma
terial, embroidered or fulled to the
shape.
The newest collars and cuffs are
colored and attached to the linen
| front, fastened at the back like a
clerical collar.
Hats are to be more worn than
bonnets. Paris shapes show de-
cided tendency toward reduction
in height.
Evening gowns for young girls are
now made of soft silk, this material
looks better than tulle after once or
twice wearing.
Figured washing materials will be
much in vogue this season and the
favorite style of making, with bas-
ques and waistcoats.
An effective spring bonnet is OF
black lace over apple-green silk, the
front trimmed with wood violets
piled high and half hidden in the
black lace.
Sateen dresses are finished with
velvet collars and cuffs, while ging-
ham suits have accessories of Ham,
burg embroideries or the woven
border of the material.
Headdresses are of the most fairy
like description. Butterfy-shaped
bows made of thinest tulle, the
wings raised, are to be had. They
are placed in front Of the high cree
tion of hair.
Lisle thread stockings are now
produced in all colors; the newest
variety is the leg and front of the
foot of different tints, an insertiun OF
color being woven so that it covers
the side of the foot.
/ Gray and pale shades of tan are
the popular colors far undressed kid
gloves, and they must have three
rows of heavy stitching on the back
and fastened with four rather long
silvered or gilt metal buttons.

serge or cheviot costumes are trim

comes dim and loses it's pretty eff
feet.
All exaggerations in fashion seem
to be gradually disappearing, tenn
porarily perhaps, but none the less
are modifying. Even the tournure
will soon be thing of the past, for
many of the new habit bodices have
long basques at the back which can
not ct properly over large bustles.

in the Middle and Eastern States, but make

England has now $l5, 900, 900 invested In

and they calculate to raise ell the wheat

thirds of our whole wheat crop we used to

HAILEY'S BILL.

In this Issue OF THE HERALD 4
printed the text of a bill introduced
in the House of Representatives. the
Other day, by Delegate HALEY, OF Idaho
- Honest John" as he likes to be
called. In the language Of the street
it's a daisy. We have heard of men
out-Heroding Herod, but HALEY tries
to 60 sill farther. 1t cannot be that
" Honest John" has ever heard that
people are sometimes hanged for so in
significant an oiense as murder; for if
he had heard Of such a thing he would
never have consented to let a man or
woman who commits the gross crime
Of belonging to the Mormon Church
suffer any milder punishment than ex-
ecution at the hands OF the public hang
man.
After all, we don't know as anything
better could be expected from Haley.
He was never anything but a political
cur and contemplate migrate. II
there are whelps in politics he is one of
them. There have beea times when
John Haley has humblod himself be-
fore the Mormons as NJ self-respecting
man would do; he has pleaded with
them for their votes, and has promised
to be their friend in return for their
support; nothing was asked of him
That he would not promise; he has
visited their settlements, slept in their
beds, hobnobbed with their leading
men, AMI mesaphoric ally speaking
crawed on his stomach before them
After the Mormons had elevated
him to respectabillty, and con-
erred on him political honor,
le discovered that they could not
hold him up, when he turned, like the
iirty demagogue that he is, against his
peneisctors, and has since been trying
o be meaner than those who have
'een steadfast and straightforward in
heir op position to the Saints, If there
gere "a Congressional election next
month, and the Mormons of Idaho
ould vote, John Haley would hasten
rom Washington to tell the Saints that
ie was their best friend, that what he
.ad done against them was merely to
lind the eyes of their enemies so as to
i've himself more power and influence.
nd that they could count on him to
nard their rights sacredIy. 1t is two
p one now that the first time he m Gets I.
n influential Mormon he will tell him
lat the Dill quoted elsewhere was put
I torefeeS merely, and that he Haley ;
still the fast friend of the NJ -rmons,
ut the fact must not be made known or ::
will spou all, and subject him to
linous suspicion. This is the kind of
lan John HALEY is, and the people of : :
)uthern and southeastern Idaho know
to their sorrow.
As 10 the bill elsewhere printed,
,ailey knew that it would be published,
nd never afterwards heard from. He
go 'ng to run for Congress in 1888, and =,
lis bill will be part of the ammunition
hich he will have prepared for the
ominating convention and the cam
aigR.

SLEEPING CAR LIABILITY.

An important decision has Just been
made in the Supreme Court of Massa-
chusetts, fixing the liability of sleeping
car companies in the matter of pro-
tectlng passengers from thieves. Viii
liam Lewis and W. r. Wing left Boston
for San Francisco on October 20. 1884:
they had tickets emitting them to
berths in car of the New York Palace
Car Company to Chicago. During the
night both were robbed of money and
valuables, which were stolen from their
clothing while they were asleep. They
sued the company for the stolen money
and the jury returned a verdict
for the amount and costs. The
Palace Car Company appealed, and it
was argued that no guarantee
was made of protection against
loss or thefts when the tickets
were sold, the defendant merely
agreeing to let the the plaintiffs occupy
seats and beds in the cars, and enjoy
the other convenIenoes provided for the
guests of the rolling palaces. The
Supreme Court has just affirmed the
judgment of the lower court, Chief
Justice Morton. who wrote the opinion,
saying:
The liability must be ascertained bv an
plying TO the new condition of things. the
and elastic principles of the
law. When a person buvs the

THE CONFERENCE COMMITTEES.

Those friends OF the Edmunds-Tucker
bill, who sre finding so much consola-
ton 10 the fact that the Senate sent the
bill to conference committee, and who
C mort themselves with the thought
tat the course taken was the proper
o 10 has en- the passage Of the meas
lie. are less cheerful at heart than they
W luId have you believe. 1t is said that
tleTucker substitute for the Edmunds
bill which passed the Senate last ses-
sion was submitted to The Vermont
Senator, and is acceptable to him; but
those who say this talk to keep up their
courage. When the bill went 10 the
Senate from the House, it was placed
before the Senate as its own bill amend
ed, and if the amendment had been &C
ceptable to Edmunds; who is the father
of the measure. the Senate would then
snd there have adopted it. That the
amended bill was not acceptable is
shown by the fact that the Senate.
on the motion OF Edmunds himself,
refused to concur, and asked for q con-
ference
According to THE HERALD's way CT
thinking the course of the bill is the
very best that could have been taken
for the people of Utah. 1t means that
Edmunds is going to demand the res
toration of some portions, atleast, of his
own bill; and it may mean also that
the House conferees, in their soberness
and removed from the heat and fear of
an impending vote, will consent to
reasonable amendments. The fact that
it has been rejected by the Senate and
gone to a conference committee, makes
il absolutely certain that the bill will
have to be returned TO- both houses,
and in both the changes that are made
can be discussed, though there can be
no discussion of clauses in the original |
bill.
Isn't it just possible that there has
been a good deal of rejoicing hereabouts
that was good deal previous L.
stead of applsuding the wisdom of Ed
munds for having the bill sent to
conference, is it not among the proba-
oilities that one of these days the stub
oornn SIS Of Edmunds will be heartily
'cussed"?
